This eatery focuses more on a modern design for their interior as well as simple decors to make it look contemporary. Not only that, the glass bottles which are hung up to resemble chandeliers make this place unique. The royal blue walls match well with the wooden floor and furniture too, making the place feel calm and artsy.

Of course, when it comes to food, they never fail to present scrumptious meals either. If you love porky dishes, Wanderlust know its way to your heart, with what else but food. Their sous vide pork chop is grilled and paired with miso-mustard cream. After a heavy meal, we will still always have space for desserts. With that, Wanderlust’s matcha pudding with raspberry sauce would be a good dessert to try out.

Brewmen is any coffee junkie’s haven. Even though the whole interior is as simple as it can get, the main point would be the caffeine they are serving. There are also random pieces of artwork and cup holders adorning the walls to give it the Brewmen touch.

Definitely, this place is all about coffee but their meals also do not disappoint. If you want something heartier, their Korean fried chicken and aglio olio would definitely make for a good dish to have. The chicken complements the pasta well, making it a complete meal. As for desserts, the Smor’ffle is also a hit among customers. It is made of tasty, crispy waffles and marshmallows topped off with chocolate cream and vanilla ice cream.

With this combination, it totally changes the way we view breakfast platters for sure! Right after having a savoury meal, why not sample some desserts as well? One must-try here is the dessert waffles which has been topped off with chocolate wafers and ice cream.

3 Idiots Café might sound like a movie. It is also the name of a café in Mont Kiara. The reason why it is named as such is due to the fact that the 3 founders possess quirky personalities. They decided to name the café after themselves. At 3 Idiots, the furniture is insta-worthy due to the fact that most of them are carved from wood to give it the true hipster look.

As for their meals, one of 3 Idiot’s signature dishes is the famous beef noodles. The broth of this dish is balanced well with herbs and spices. The meat itself is tender and it pairs well with the fresh vegetables and noodles. For a lighter option, peanut butter toast with honey is definitely another recommended one!
